Chapter 433 Obtaining the Wushan Grass
"Hmph! Alright, then let's find a Wheel Beast!" Elder Li said smugly.
The Wheel Beast is a fourth-grade magical beast, named for the wheel-like patterns on its body.
This magical beast's favorite thing is the Rebirth Pill.
A cheer erupted again as the result of the match was about to be revealed.
Before long, a blue, boar-sized wheeled beast was led up.
On each side of the beast's skin, circles grew in concentric rings, which could easily dazzle the eyes if one looked at them for too long.
This is also a way for the Wheel Beast to protect itself.
The pills from Leng Yun and Elder Li were placed in silver plates, facing opposite directions, awaiting the choice of the magical beasts.
All eyes were now focused on the magical beast.
However, the group couldn't stare at the Wheel Beast for too long, or they would get dizzy and their eyes would blur. So after watching for a while, they immediately looked away to relieve the pressure, and then stared at the Wheel Beast again, afraid of missing a wonderful moment.
As soon as the wheel beast was led onto the stage, it smelled the fragrance of the elixir and became somewhat excited, trying to break free of its ropes.
At a command, the ropes binding the beast were finally released.
The wheeled beast moved its limbs and headed towards the pill.
When they reached the fork in the road, the wheel beast suddenly stopped.
He sniffed the left side, then the right, clearly caught in a dilemma.
All eyes on the field were fixed on the wheeled beast, awaiting its ruling on the match.
On the right was Leng Yun's pill, and at this moment, the blue light on the pill flickered and swirled around it once again.
Suddenly, the wheel beast seemed to have made up its mind and charged to the right.
Although the wheel beast had not yet reached the pill, the outcome was already clear: Leng Yun had won!
The disciples of Leng Family Village immediately erupted in enthusiastic cheers.
"Brother Yun, I knew you were the best!" Feng Mei said.
Grand Tutor Pang also came over: "Young man, you are indeed extraordinary. I was right about you. You are actually able to improve pills on your own. Not every alchemist can do that."
Leng Yun smiled but did not speak.
At this moment, Huang Gua and Elder Li on the opposite side looked somewhat shocked. Elder Li's face no longer had the confident expression he had before. In fact, he had never thought that he, the peak of the fifth-grade pill, would lose to someone else.
“You’ve lost. Hand over the Wushan Grass.” Leng Yun took two steps forward and extended his hand to Huang Gua.
Huang Gua's face was very ugly at this moment, after all, Wushan Grass was a great treasure of the Separation Sect and a very rare item.
"Hmph, trying to renege on your promise?" Leng Yun asked.
Huang Gua sneered: "Your pill is different from the usual Rebirth Pill. Who knows if it's some other type of pill? This round doesn't count!"
Leng Yun had long anticipated that Huang Gua and the others would bring up this matter.
“Since you’re willing to gamble, you have to accept the consequences. Today, everyone from Fanglai Kingdom is here. Your pills have already lost. Are you going to go back on your word?” Feng Mei said.
Huang Gua's face grew even uglier. He turned to look at Elder Li, hoping the latter could say a few words on his behalf.
However, Elder Li himself was also filled with shame at this moment. Even now, he had to admit that Leng Yun's talent in alchemy was indeed extraordinary.
He had come to understand that the blue light on the Cold Cloud Pill was precisely what enhanced its medicinal effects.
"Hmph! Huang Gua, if you want to renege on your promise, we'll play along!" Grand Tutor Pang suddenly took a step forward.
Suddenly, the entire arena seemed to be shrouded in a layer of white mist, and even the surrounding air seemed to drop significantly.
Ice Emperor's anger was enough to intimidate everyone, and the surrounding audience fell silent, watching Ice Emperor and Huang Gua.
The atmosphere was tense, as if a battle was about to break out.
Finally, Huang Gua conceded defeat, took out a black herb from his storage ring, and threw it to Leng Yun.
Leng Yun took a look at the herb and confirmed that it was indeed Wushan grass.
He smiled and said, "Thank you very much then. I will definitely go to the farewell gate to thank you in person another day!"
"Hmph! Arrogant!" Huang Gua said angrily, then left with Elder Li.
Behind them, a chorus of boos rose from the people of Lengjiazhuang.
Leng Yun was also very happy. He had now obtained two kinds of herbs, and only needed one more to refine the Unsealing Pill. Only then would the 'henchman' Pang Taishi be truly worth the money.
The crowd gradually dispersed, and the outsiders who had come to watch the spectacle rushed back home, eager to tell everyone what had happened.
The people of Lengjiazhuang were all excited. This time they could finally hold their heads high, because the Separation Gate and the Miraculous Medicine Pavilion had come to cause trouble, but they had to leave with their tails between their legs!
Meanwhile, Huang Gua and Elder Li did not leave, but remained in the jungle not far from Leng Family Village.
"That Leng Yun is truly despicable; we must get rid of him!" Huang Gua said fiercely.
A sinister glint flashed in Elder Li's eyes: "Don't worry, I have another way!"
Then, he whispered a few words to Huang Gua.
Huang Gua was overjoyed upon hearing this: "Great! Let's do it this way, and make the entire Leng Family Village disappear!"
……
The next day, Leng Yun woke up in the morning but didn't find the chattering Feng Mei, and instead felt a little uneasy.
When he stepped out of the house, he found that the servants who usually worked in the courtyard were all gone.
"Strange," Leng Yun thought to himself as he walked to Feng Mei's room.
"Mei'er, are you up?" Leng Yun knocked on the door and asked.
"Brother Yun, I feel so bad!"
Feng Mei's weak voice came from inside the room.
Leng Yun was startled and immediately went inside the house.
He found Feng Mei lying weakly on the bed, her face pale.
Upon examination, Leng Yun discovered that Feng Mei had been poisoned!
Immediately, Leng Yun took out a panacea and gave it to Feng Mei.
However, this elixir can only delay the release of the poison; it cannot cure it.
"Strange, what happened?" Leng Yun asked, helping Feng Mei up. "How did you get poisoned?"
Feng Mei shook her head and said, "I don't know either. I've been with you and the Ice Emperor the whole time. How could I have been poisoned?"
When Grand Tutor Pang was mentioned, Leng Yun realized that he hadn't seen him either, so he told Feng Mei to rest first and went to Grand Tutor Pang's room.
As Leng Yun had predicted, Grand Tutor Pang had also been poisoned!
Subsequently, Leng Yun discovered that not only Feng Mei and Grand Tutor Pang, but everyone in the entire manor had been poisoned!
In other words, everyone in Leng Family Village except Leng Yun has been poisoned!
"how so!"
Just as Leng Yun was puzzled, a wild laugh suddenly came from behind him.
"Haha, Leng Yun, I didn't expect to see you again so soon!"
